Enable compression

[Codemonger]

when creating a PB library, does enable compression slow down the .lib speed at all ? or is this purely for HDD storage purposes , so lib's don't become too huge ?

The compression is applied to the PureLibrary file. This makes it smaller
and faster for the compiler to load. But it has no effects on the final
executable, because the compiler decompresses the lib when it is loaded.
The final executable is exactly the same, with or without the compression
option enabled when creating the lib.

So it is just about the filesize of your PureLib and startup speed of the
compiler, nothing else.

Thanks freak ! just wanted to clear that up, because i noticed a huge change in file size and was just concerned that it would effect speed in anyway. I guess it doesn't, thats great news.
